Verified Jun 4, 2026

Cat · Wet All Life Stages All Breed Sizes

This is a grain-free minced wet cat food featuring turkey and salmon as the main animal protein sources in a light gravy. It provides moderate protein and fat for all life stages, with added taurine, vitamins, minerals, and omega fatty acids. The high moisture content can help support daily hydration for cats who don’t drink much water on their own.

KibbleLab Score
8.4 out of 10

This is a high-quality wet diet suitable for most cats at any life stage, including those who do well on a grain-free formula. Turkey and salmon supply the primary protein, and the inclusion of fish oil and flaxseed adds beneficial omega fatty acids for skin, coat, and overall health. It’s a nice option if you want a minced texture in gravy with a moderate calorie density and good nutrient fortification.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Turkey and salmon as main animal protein sources, appropriate for obligate carnivores.
  • Grain-free formula that still avoids over-relying on legumes; peas appear mid-list rather than as a dominant ingredient.
  • Good nutrient fortification with taurine, essential vitamins, chelated (proteinate) trace minerals, and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.
  • High moisture content can help support urinary tract health and hydration, especially for cats that prefer wet food.

Considerations

  • Contains multiple animal proteins (turkey, salmon, egg), which may not be ideal if your cat needs a strictly limited-ingredient or single-protein diet for food allergy workups.
  • Pea ingredient is present; while not excessive here, some owners of cats with suspected legume sensitivities may prefer to avoid it.
  • Fish ingredients and fish oil are included, which may be an issue for cats with known fish allergies.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Turkey
Turkey is commonly used as a primary animal protein in dog and cat foods, offering highly digestible, high‑quality protein and supplying essential amino acids along with B vitamins, phosphorus and zinc to support muscle maintenance and metabolism. Its fat level varies by cut so products can be lean or richer; some pets may develop allergies to poultry, cooked bones are hazardous, raw meat carries bacterial risk, and owners should rely on balanced commercial formulations (and ensure adequate taurine for cats) if turkey is a main ingredient.
02
Turkey Broth
Turkey broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a flavoring and moisture enhancer to improve palatability, and in wet formulas it contributes small amounts of protein, amino acids and electrolytes. It can help entice dogs and cats to eat or increase hydration, but caregivers should check sodium levels and avoid broths with onion, garlic, xylitol or other harmful additives, and be mindful if the pet has a poultry allergy.
03
Water
Water is an essential nutrient and the primary solvent and moisture component in pet foods, especially wet and canned diets, and is also used in processing and to adjust texture and palatability. It is vital for digestion, nutrient transport, temperature regulation and waste removal in dogs and cats; pets must have constant access to clean water as dehydration can quickly lead to serious health issues and requirements increase with activity, heat, or illness, while moisture in wet food can help meet part of their daily needs.
04
Salmon
Salmon is commonly used as a high-quality animal protein and rich source of omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) in dog and cat foods, supporting skin and coat condition, joint and cognitive health, and overall muscle maintenance. While very nutritious, salmon can be an allergen for some pets and raw salmon may pose risks from parasites, thiaminase-related thiamine loss, and region-specific pathogens (e.g., salmon poisoning); owners should avoid feeding uncooked bones and consider sourcing to minimize contaminant and sustainability concerns.
05
Natural Flavor
Natural flavor is used primarily as a palatability enhancer in pet foods to improve taste and aroma and is not intended to provide significant nutrients, typically coming from concentrated extracts of meat, poultry, plant, or fermentation sources. While it can increase acceptance in picky dogs and cats, manufacturers are not required to disclose specific sources so pets with known sensitivities or allergies may react, and presence of natural flavor should not be taken as a guarantee of overall product quality.
